Roman Concrete
de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception
The
ancient Romans still have a thing or two to teach modern chemists about
highly durable and environmentally friendly concrete. http://oak.ctx.ly/r/60p2
Contemporary concrete is designed to last for about 100 years, yet at
the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea lies remains of Roman structures
that have remained surprisingly intact for almost 2000 years.
